i don’t read much, but i would say this series is pretty similar in tone and style! it takes place in 1821 England where magic and fantasy elements exist, and the way the author writes just feels like you’re there with the characters. it’s one of my favorite series and was the only thing that surpassed my love for song of achilles (if that’s possible)

With your interest in whimsy and YA fiction I would highly recommend Shepherd King Duology by Rachel Gillig. I flew through these books they were so engaging and had a really interesting magic system and a plot that doesn’t follow the standard ā€œchosen oneā€ you see in a lot of fantasy.

If we were villains: it’s one of my new favs by ML Rios! It’s about a group of Shakespeare scholars that go to school in this prestigious university in BFE. They are doing a production of a play when someone turns up dead with no suspect. It’s super thrilling and an amazing use of shakespeare’s text to tie the story together. 100% recommend if ur into horror/murder mystery! Crowns of Nyaxia: This is a series by carissa broadbent that (currently) spans 2 main books as well as a couple spinoff books. The two main books are some of my faves in the fantasy genre. it’s hunger games with vampires! there’s amazing fight scenes, gore, poetry, and a little smut if you’re into that. I read both of these books this summer and this is the first time that i’ve read a spinoff in a series bc i loved the characters that much. enjoy expanding your horizons!!!!!

i know its a children’s book BUT HEAR ME OUT!!! it’s such a good book and if you know me then you know how much i love fantasy, especially when it’s dark fairytale based. Adam Gidwitz is an amazing author and adds a comedy element to these stories in the best way. If you’d like something quick, funny, and a little dark and quirky you’d love this series
